Gays are not being fined if they want to engage in homosexual activity, but the religious organizations will be if they follow their conscience and decline to fund abortifacient activity. Freedom of religion is guaranteed by the constitution–and although freedom to engage in whatever sexual activity one desires is not guaranteed,no one is trying to fine people for their sexual orientation. Stick to the theme at hand.

It’s not the case and it appears hypocritical to even the most casual observer. You can’t wage a war against gay Americans for decades and then be surprised when the government tries to take away yours. Wake up and do what Jesus taught, treat others the way that you wish to be treated and be an example.

I have never seen so many priest concelabrate, as well as people attend. I spent the morning in prayer before the Mass, and then was awed by the experience.

It all made me think about what a comfort the Mass is. We, and our opponents, will be out there in the public square to educate and inform on our viewpoints. However, we Catholics are intense, but a lot less angry. We have the Mass, and prayer before the Almighty, to temper our anger, and elevate us to a higher level of power.
